With the trade deadline approaching (or at the time of writing actually having gone) you might think to yourself what could the Manhattan Rage do to put themselves in better contention for the playoffs? The answer is not a lot, as short of several teams donating their best players in an act of charity, there is nothing the Rage could do to put themselves in contention. With the end of the season now nearing, the question for the Rage is now on where towards the bottom of the standings they will end up and what that means for their draft lottery chances. The Rage will be hoping to win the lottery again to secure a second successive 1st overall pick which would add another top prospect to their youthful roster. And whilst the playoffs are definitely out this season, the Rage will be looking to cash in on the draft and continue to develop their talent so they can be in the conversation come playoff time in future years.
